CT6APME - Hellhole - 1st Storyboard's Iterations

University of Portsmouth - Animation Yr. 3 - Advanced Pre-Production Methods


After receiving feedback, I realized that there were a few issues that I had to address:

1) There was a lack of suspense/ horror because the main characters were soldiers who could fight back.
2) The opening sequence was too long and rather useless.
3) The pacing was too slow, and the animatic ended up too long.

The conclusion was that I had to turn the main characters into scientists, to shorten the intro sequence in such a way that it still makes sense and try to have a snappier edit with jump cuts and transitions. 

Because the setting could have been confusing, since there is a crater which leads to a cave system, I decided to keep the opening sequence. The challenge was to keep it short while setting the location in a clear enough way. I personally found this especially tricky and ended up with a few iterations:

1)
